Parametric Self Watering Planter w/ Water Level Indicator

thingiverse

This is a parametric pot with a vented, self-watering reservoir and water level indicator. I designed this in Fusion 360 and have included STLs for a 4", cylindrical version with interchangeable smooth, fluted, and knurled variants in the correct orientation for printing (please follow the detailed printing instructions below). If you want to make other sizes, shapes, or configurations, the Fusion 360 projects have the appropriate parameters favorited, with comments explaining their use. Here are the links: * **Adjustable Wall Planter.f3z** - This one just lets you increase the outside wall thickness, in case you want a chunky style, or to get the right thickness to pair with the other styles. * **Variant: Knurled Planter.f3z** - This style is great for shiny filaments and hiding seams. *Warning: very fine knurling can take a loooong time to compute, slice, and render (e.g. 3mm knurl_spacing took ~20 minutes for Fusion 360 to apply, and it appeared to hang while processing, but it looked awesome when it finished).* * **Variant: Fluted Planter.f3z** - Varying these parameters can get looks ranging from Roman columns, to steampunk gears, or even ice cream confections.
